DCA turns 25 Next year, what do you hope to see?

[JerrodDragon89]

So yeah next February will be DCA 25th Anniversary.

What are you hoping to see?

1) WOC 25th Anniversary Edition I would love to see something like Remember Dreams Come True, but WOC style. Some fun parts from things in the past like TOT, Bugsland/its tough to be a Bug and Muppets 3D.
2) A New Parade or Nighttime show, something focusing on the characters that have made the park grow from Toy Story, to little mermaid, The Band Concert featuring Mickey Mouse and friends, Marvel, Big Hero 6, and Cars to name a few
3) Before and after Photo's - Maybe a small exhibit or just around the park showing off the old lands and rides that used to be at the park
4) Soarin over California ALL year
5) Maybe having certain dates/times when the Increacoaster can go back to the old Screamin sound track
6) (will never happen) bring back Muppets 3D for the year

4) Soarin over California ALL year

I vote for this one. I don't like the new one at all. The filming sites are so predictable and the CGI animals are horrible.

Bring back Superstar Limo!

DCA won’t turn 25 until 2026. It opened in February 2001.

Bring back Superstar Limo!

We went in May 2001 and it was so empty and gloomy/rainy that day that we re-road superstar limo so many times without having to re-walk the queue. Also looped a few times on grizzly that day.

I'd love to see some nod to ToT, like maybe the family from Tower somehow inserted into Guardians.

You have some great ideas, JerrodDragon89!

4) Soarin over California ALL year

YES. But, also I would love a slightly revamped Soarin' Over California. I love the classic, but with all the new technology available to us now, it looks rough. Just higher quality video, but the same or similar locations.

Also: BRING BACK THE CALIFORNIA LETTERS! (Yes, I know they're up in NorCal and this is probably logistically difficult. But some sort of tribute to them would be fun!)

I saw they had some Bug's Life characters show up at the DVC Moonlight Magic event, so maybe that's a hint of bringing some Bug's Life stuff into the park for the anniversary. We can dream anyway.

But Disneyland turns 70 next year!

But Disneyland turns 70 next year!

I hope they do something cool for it! I'll have to think of something for Platinum Ears. I made diamond ears for the 60th.

4) Soarin over California ALL year

This one without hesitation, question, or doubt.

I vote for this one. I don't like the new one at all. The filming sites are so predictable and the CGI animals are horrible.

It's not just the animals, all the CGI is horrible. It looks fake. Also, I think the scents/smells in the California version are better.

But Disneyland turns 70 next year!

I think the OP may have made an error in the math, but it's still a valid question/post. DCA turns 25 in 2026, and I think it's fun to speculate and make a wish list of what we would like/hope to see in DCA to celebrate the milestone.

Disneyland turns 70 in 2025. I think it's possible for Disneyland to do something in 2025 to celebrate Disneyland and something in 2026 to celebrate DCA.

I would love to see that. For one thing, I've always wondered how many people never realized that was Lake Tahoe at the end of the skiing scene because the lake was covered over by clouds. It would have been so stunning to come over that ridge and see the deep blue lake. I know this was an expensive project and they must have been on a tight schedule but I've never understood why they couldn't have delayed for a day or two to get the perfect shot there.

Yep, and with all the new drone cameras, they can get high quality aerial shots on a lighter budget than using helicopters and such.

Heck, even just updating the park shot at the end would be helpful! The current footage doesn't include Galaxy's edge, which is beautiful at night, and would really add some extra oomph to an aerial shot of Disneyland.

I would love to see an opening date for the new Marvel E ticket. Also more ride announcements in general haha.

I did bad math. But yeah in 2026 which is still very close

Also, I would think that done cameras would be less expensive than helicopters.

I generally have zero interest in Avengers Campus, but did we all forget we were promised an E-ticket ride in this land? How about we revisit that?

Woops! Sorry, you did beat me to it.

A year of ticket and hotel prices rolled back to what they were on opening day!
